Description
When I opened my eyes, I found myself as a character in a crime-themed MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game). For a moment, I denied reality and felt despair. But after thinking it over, this life isn’t so bad. A weekend enjoyed in a high-rise penthouse with a view of the city and a yacht. Even if I spend money like water, my bank balance never decreases, and my garage is filled with various supercars. Although the problem is that the money is criminal proceeds and the city is a city of crime. However, at the end of the day, those who are alive must live on. “Hello, beautiful. I’ve been busting my ass trying to catch you.” However, there’s no time for me to adjust. At 2 AM, a strange NPC suddenly barged in. “Sit closer. I won’t bite.” “Bite? What?” “Is repeating everything I say your habit?” “……” “Fix it. It’s annoying.” But things start to get stranger. The man, who was only pretty-faced but spewed tr*sh whenever he opened his mouth, is an agent from the Crime Investigation Bureau. Using Riley’s criminal record as leverage, he forces me to accept his proposal. “Then you’re just going to keep walking around like that? Showing off all your chest.” The man, who seemed like he would chop her head off the moment she became useless, for some reason starts pretending to be a jealous husband. Rumors begin to spread that he and Riley have a romantic relationship. “You seduced me.” “Are you seeing things?” The biggest issue is that even the person involved in the rumor misunderstands their relationship and believes they are dating on his own. “Will you marry me?” “No.” “Playing hard to get. So cute.” “Excuse me, are you out of your mind?” “It’s fine. You’ll end up doing it.” No. I don’t want to. I never wanted this kind of development. I just want to go back. I desperately want to return to my peaceful, comfortable world where my family is waiting. I want to go back.

My Thoughts on My NPC is a Bastard
Alright, let's dive into "My NPC is a Bastard." With a title like that, I went in expecting a wild ride, and for the most part, it delivered. This novel definitely leans into its adult, comedic, and smut tags, so if you're easily offended, this might not be your cup of tea. But if you're looking for something a little…unhinged, keep reading.
First Impressions
The premise itself is intriguing. The idea of a female protagonist navigating a game world, especially with a "bastard" NPC thrown into the mix, had me hooked from the start. The initial chapters did a decent job of setting the scene and introducing the main players, establishing the comedic undertones and hinting at the drama to come.
What Works Well
The humor is definitely a strong point. The author seems to have a knack for writing witty dialogue and creating absurd situations. The "enemies become lovers" trope is in full swing here, and the dynamic between the protagonist and her love interest is genuinely entertaining. I also appreciate the "love interest falls in love first" aspect; it adds a layer of complexity to their relationship. The cunning protagonist also keeps the plot moving forward, and I am always here for a strong female lead.
Areas of Concern
While the story has potential, I did find myself occasionally stumbling over the writing. There were instances where the dialogue felt a bit clunky, and it wasn't always clear who was speaking. This disrupted the flow of the story and took me out of the moment. Also, some of the action descriptions could use a bit more clarity. Sometimes, it was hard to visualize exactly what was happening. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's definitely something that could be improved.
Final Verdict
"My NPC is a Bastard" is a fun, albeit slightly rough around the edges, read. If you're a fan of comedic fantasy with a healthy dose of mature themes and don't mind a few translation hiccups, then you'll probably enjoy this. It's not perfect, but it has enough charm and humor to keep me coming back for more. I'm giving it a solid 3.75 out of 5 stars.
